Cool Style tips for hot summer days

1. A fitted jacket in a seersucker or nautical pattern will instantly give your look a fresh and sophisticated feel of the season, with out constricting your comfort.  Structured pieces with eyelets work well too.  The eyelet is a lovely, feminine detail that can draw interest to a piece as well as providing natural airflow to a structured piece like a jacket that could otherwise become constricting in the hotter weather.
2. For a more dressy or business look, the short suit is very popular right now.  The short, a once strictly casual part of the wardrobe is now getting dressed up for a sophisticated look on those hot summer days when you have important business to do.
3. The right accessories can transform the sloppiest of outfits into something summer-chic.   For your feet, slide on espadrilles, or a pair of glitzy strappy sandals.  Your feet will feel cool and look fabulous too with a new pedicure.  To go in your hand or over your shoulder a purse in wicker or straw or even a leather weave is very chic and instantly achieves a look that screams beach, especially if you have a good tan and fabulous sun glasses!
